Fantasy Tip: Stewart was getting the veteran's mid-week rest, and he certainly earned it going over 100 yards with three touchdowns against a stout Vikings defense last week. Despite the big game he should still be viewed as a RB3 or flex fantasy option against the Packers this week.

Fantasy Tip: Olsen sounds like he'll be healthy enough to go, but he remains a risky fantasy play. He returned in Week 12 and had just one catch for 10 yards before aggravating his injury, he was inactive in Week 13 and he was blanked last week against Minnesota. Use him at your own risk in Week 15.

Fantasy Tip: Newton has been resting or limited in mid-week practices all season, resting his surgically repaired shoulder. He'll be fine once the game is played, and he has an excellent matchup against the Packers. Green Bay ranks 24th in the NFL in pass defense, and they have allowed the fourth-most fantasy points per game over the past five weeks.

Fantasy Tip: McCaffrey might be hitting a bit of a rookie wall, as he has 51 or fewer total yards from scrimmage over the past two games, and he has just one touchdown over the past three outings. He has also faced some tough competition. The Packers pass defense is very giving, so he can be trusted as a RB3 or flex fantasy play despite the rough patch lately.

Fantasy Tip: Funchess has exceled as the team's No. 1 receiver, emerging as a useful WR3 or flex fantasy option across the board in most formats. He has a nice matchup against the Packers, the league's 24th-ranked pass defense.

Fantasy Tip: The Packers have allowed 263 passing yards per game, and the 11 touchdowns through the air allowed is tied for most in the league. Newton hasn't thrown for 200 yards in three games, and he has some upside in the latter portion of the QB1 discussion.

Fantasy Tip: Someone needs to step up as the No. 2 receiver behind Devin Funchess and Byrd appears to be offering his services. However, he is not a recommended fantasy option in most leagues heading into Week 15 against the Packers.

Fantasy Tip: Funchess has excelled as the team's No. 1 receiver since trading Kelvin Benjamin, totaling 405 receiving yards and four touchdowns over the past five outings. He is a solid WR3 in all fantasy formats heading into Week 15 against the Packers.

Fantasy Tip: McCaffrey's role had been growing in recent weeks, but he was outshined by veteran Jonathan Stewart. The starter rumbled for 103 yards and three rushing scores to keep McCaffrey pinned to the sidelines. McCaffrey still remains a decent RB3 or flex play in most PPR formats heading into Week 15 against the Packers.

Fantasy Tip: Not many people predicted this type of production against a stifling Vikings rush defense. Stewart certainly surprised and led many to playoff fantasy wins for those who rolled the dice on him. He'll look to keep it rolling in Week 15 against the visiting Packers.
